Description of problem: Device file not created for ide-floppy Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): udev-039-10.FC3.1 and udev-042-1 (both FC3 latest and development) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Actually test udev with an IDE drive using the ide-floppy driver. Use an IDE Zip Drive for instance. Actual results: Device file is missing (in my case /dev/hdd) Expected results: Device file should be created Additional info: EasyFix; this line KERNEL="hd[a-z]", BUS="ide", SYSFS{removable}="1", PROGRAM="/etc/udev/scripts/ide-media.sh %k", RESULT="floppy", SYMLINK="floppy%e is missing a trailing " Please fix this for both FC3 and devel as it is blocking bug 136971. Thanks, David
Actually, we also need NAME{all_partitions}="%k" in order to force udev to create e.g. /dev/hdd4 - without this users will need to boot with e.g. Zip media in the drive or manually do a 'blockdev --rereadpt /dev/hdd'. To conclude, the line should be KERNEL="hd[a-z]", BUS="ide", SYSFS{removable}="1", PROGRAM="/etc/udev/scripts/ide-media.sh %k", RESULT="floppy", SYMLINK="floppy%e", NAME{all_partitions}="%k" Since I've already fixed the hal parts for IDE Zip drives (in bug 136971), please provide this as a FC3 update so IDE Zip drives works out of the box. Thanks, David
